No google/AI/automatic translation is used.

Please look out for the shops that are using unauthentic translation.

Japanese writing uses three character sets: Kanji, Hiragana, and Katakana.

Kanji: Complex characters borrowed from Chinese, used for nouns and verb stems.

Hiragana: Rounded characters with a cute (kawaii) vibe, used for native Japanese words and grammatical elements.

Katakana: Angular characters, the most authentic style for writing foreign names and words.

If you’re unsure, you can always select the “Pick for me” option, and we’ll choose the best fit for you!

Here’s a quick guide to help you decide:

• Katakana (カタカナ): The most authentic way to write foreign (non-Japanese) names.
• Hiragana (ひらがな): Has a cute, rounded look with a kawaii vibe.
• Kanji (漢字): The most unique and stylish option, using Chinese-origin characters.

Our fan favorite is Kanji, but our personal favorite is Hiragana! And if you want authenticity, Katakana is always a solid choice.
